Alan Caruba writes in his July 11 Accuracy in Media column:
A study, “Profiles of Perpetrators of Terrorism”, commissioned by the Department of Homeland Security identified the following characteristics of potential “terrorists.”
# Americans who believe their “way of life” is under attack;
# Americans who are “fiercely nationalistic (as opposed to universal and international in orientation)”;
# People who consider themselves “anti-global” (presumably those who are wary of the loss of American sovereignty, opposed to the United Nations, etc.);
# Americans who are “suspicious of centralized federal authority”;
# Americans who are “reverent of individual liberty”;
# People who “believe in conspiracy theories that involve grave threat to national sovereignty and/or personal liberty.”
This is a President who called for a “Civilian National Security Force” on July 2, 2008, one that would be “just as powerful, just as strong, just as well funded as the U.S. military.”
Obama is putting in force everything a tyranny requires to replace the Republic.
As we detailed when WorldNetDaily tried the same misleading distortion, the study in question describes those “Perpetrators of Terrorism” as people involved in paramilitary or survivalist groups first and foremost, who may also be “suspicious of centralized federal authority” and “reverent of individual liberty.” Caruba dishonestly omits the study’s reference to paramilitary or survivalist traits.
As for the “Civilian National Security Force” stuff — which WND also has lied about — Obama has specifically stated that it refers to an expansion of the foreign service.
